The Fourth Doctor (Tom Baker) time-shifts onto one cassette. The Daleks join his third incarnation (Jon Pertwee) on another.
Sharpen your sonic screwdrivers, TARDIS travelers! To commemorate the 25th anniversary of Doctor Who, the longest running science-fiction series in broadcast history, Playhouse Video has added three new Doctor Who titles to its catalog. Celebrated with 110 million viewers in 60 countries worldwide, the cult of the Doctor will treasure a story originally created to celebrate the series' 20th anniversary. "The Five Doctors" (1983), written by Terrance Dicks, is a fan fantasy come true when the first five Doctors (Richard Hurndall, substituting for the late William Hartnell; Patrick Troughton, Jon Pertwee, Tom Baker and Peter Davison), are included in this grand one-time-only reunion. The Doctor and all of his regenerations have been taken out of time and placed into the Death Zone. It's up to the evil Master himself to rescue the Doctors and save their home world, Gallifrey.
In "The Day of the Daleks" (1972), all signs of civilization have been wiped out by war. This is the opportunity that the robot Daleks have been awaiting, all the better to seize control of Earth. Sir Reginald Styles, a high-ranking diplomat is believed to be the agent who shaped Earth's terrifying future. So, a mysterious and savage 22nd century guerrilla force is sent from the future to the present to terminate Styles. Only one thing stands in the way of their mission to rewrite history and save their world: The Doctor. Directed by Paul Bernard and written by Louis Marks, "Daleks" stars Jon Pertwee (STARLOG #130).
In "The Deadly Assassin" (1976), The Doctor (Tom Baker) is on trial for murder. The President of the Time Lords, as The Doctor predicted, is assassinated. The Doctor was the only one seen firing the rifle and therefore believed to be the assassin. At his trial, with only three hours to live, The Doctor announces that he wants to run for president. "The Deadly Assassin" includes the ultimate showdown between The Doctor and his arch-enemy, the Master — now more deadly than ever in his twelfth regeneration.
All three episodes are 90 minutes long on VHS and Beta HiFi cassettes, $19.98 each.
